To solve this problem, we have to use the area of both gauze or the dimensions on each gauze and compare them. we can see that the sheets are not similar as they have different areas.
<h3>Area of Rectangle</h3>
The area of a rectangle is given as the product between the length and it's width.
Data;
- Length = 9in
- Area = 45in^2
- width = ?
- length 2 = 4in
- width 2 = 3in
In the first gauze, the area is given as 45in^2 and we have value of the length. To find the width of the first gauze can be calculated as
We can see that the width are not equal so is their length.
But if we would truly compare them, the accurate way to do that is by their area
The area of the second gauze is given by
From the above calculations, we can see that the sheets are not similar as they have different areas.

Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
Answer:
Sipho catches up Jabu at 6:30 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Jabu left town A to travel to town B at 6:00 a.m. he drove at an average speed of 80km/h.
At 8:30 am, when Sipho leaves, we will have traveled 2.5 hours at 80 km/h, so he will be 80*2.5 = 200 km ahead.
From then, his position will be given by:
Sipho left town A to travel to town B. He drove at an average speed of 100 km/h.
His position will be given by:
At what time will Sipho catch up jabu?
He will catch up in t hours, and t is found when:
So
He will catch up 10 hours after 8:30 am, that is, 6:30 pm.
Sipho catches up Jabu at 6:30 pm
Answer: $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
$3.00 divided by 2 pounds is $1.5
$4.50 divided by 3 pounds is $1.5
and $6.00 divided by 4 pounds $1.5
